Eli prays

Friday night we sat down to eat supper and Eli says the prayer. He starts, "Dear God, for the people, 1,2,3,4,5,6 and for yesterday Amen." He pointed at everyone at the table as he counted. He was so sweet. He loves to say the prayer. I know it is short but I have lots to do.

Our new picture

My sister, Halley, took the new picture of the three of us that is our profile picture. She is taking pictures as well as working at the bank now. She does such a good job. We were are the Gullion farm when she took this one.

Frog pictures

Here are the pictures of the frog the boys played with the other night after the youth devo. Eli had fun and Micah was not too sure what to do with it. The frog did survive Micah holding it.

You made me feel better....

Eli says the sweetest things. We were in town on Friday. I had worked and Lollie, Pop and the boys meet me after work in town. We were in Target looking around the one they just built in Decatur and I was putting Eli into the buggy and kissed him as I put him in. He looked up at me and said "You make me feel better." His voice carried one of excitement as he said that. And all because of a kiss that was just because he was close enough to kiss. After the week I had it was what I needed to hear. He is so sweet.

And Micah...He is growing too fast. He made his first animal noise this week. He is a lion. He is so cute when he growls. He is whistleing for Gizmo. And today during church he pulls up for the first time. He reached his arms up and grabbed the back of the pew and pulled right up without any trouble.

Tonight after church we had the youth devo. Eli loves to catch frogs and play with them but not always touch them. We caught a tree frog just before we left. He let it crawl all on him and held it. He was laughing that deep belly laugh and wiggled every time it moved but always let Lollie put the frog back on him. Micah also got to touch the frog and was so funny. His expression never changed. I have some pictures I hope to have time to put on tomorrow.

Pictures...finally

Here are the pictures that I promised a while back. Sorry it took so long! The first two were at Mimi and Monks. The rest were taken while we were at Bradon and Gavins.

Eli and Micah

The boys are doing good. Eli has been a little under the weather. Nothing serious, just a little runny nose. Hopefully he is on his way to getting better. He was not as ill this afternoon after he got up from his nap. Micah is getting so big. He has a new tooth. It came in on Tuesday of last week. He drank from a straw today. It was amazing to watch.

I have some pictures of the boys that I hope to upload tomorrow. We went and played with Bradon and Gavin one day last week. Lollie also took some sweet pics today of the boys outside.

When the light comes on...

Tonight as I was getting Eli to sleep we were talking about what we were going to do tomorrow. I was telling him we were meeting some friends for lunch in Athens and then going to go to Adria's and play with Bradon and Gavin. He was excited! It has been a while since we have seen them. He is talking about going and all the sudden says, "When the lights come on." I asked him what. He points to his window and says, "When the lights come on. It is dark out there right now." It was so cute. He has such a simple way of putting things. Why do we have to lose that as we get older.

Micah turned 8 months today. He also has a new top tooth. That makes three. He is really good at grinding that tooth with the two on the bottom and it sounds awful. He is growing so fast.
